Sad Plight of the Famous
City of Columbia.
'Constructive Total Loss" Indeed,
Was In Bad Condition Starting.
Had Al Rating.
In the verdict of the official survey
ors of the S. S. City of Columbia is
affirmed the judgment of Capt. Milnor
that the ship is a "constructive total
loss," dating from the Hilo examina
tion. Capt. Fuller, Capt. Campbell and
Jas. Ly!e constituted the jury which
has now made a return to Consul
General Haywood. They find that it
will cost $lu.(0u to repair the vessel
to enable her to be taken to San
Francisco with safety. Adding this
$10,000 to the claim against the City
of Columbia makes her a perfect
example of the "constructive total
loss," as interpreted by Capt. Milnor
and the authorities in general every
where. In other words, as she now
lies, it will cost more to make here a
good ship than she is worth.
As the City of Columbia now lies in
the harlKr here she is making an inch
and a half of water an hour. This
leak is in or about the propellor shaft
sleeve and can be stopped only in a
dock. It is recommended by the sur
veyors that repair at this portion of
the ship be undertaken in Honolulu.
A noteworthy section of findings of
the surveyors is expression of the
opinion that she "shows weakness and
was that way before she commenced
this voyage." The vessel had been in
spected at Seattle before her departure
by the Government authorities and by
the underwriters and had been given
a rating of Al for five years. This
fact makes a present of a somewhat
bothersome situation, to the insurance
people. Of what the vessel may have
been before he took command of her,
Capt. Milnor could not have had any
personal knowledge till he made the
inspection at Hilo. He was given his
commission as master less than
twenty-four hours before steaming for
Hilo and Honolulu, being called from
his place as captain of the fine steam
er Arizona. When Capt. Milnor took
charge the Columbia was of course
about ready for sea.
The surveyors, as is the custom of
such men. speak frankly of what they
find. They discover that in several
places the works of the vessel hang
by slender threads. This is true of
not a little of the superstructure and
there was decided weakness in the
boiler fastenings.
Under the libel of the-crew of the
City of Columbia the ship is to be
offered for sale next month at an up
set price that will meet the total of
the claims of the men. It is not likely
that there will be any bidders here.
Then the ship will be offered on the
Coast.
EDUCATION.
Teachers Appointed and Truancy
Discussed.
The Doard of Education met yester
day afternoon, Minister Cooper presid
ing. A number of recommendations
and applications for positions were re
ceived by the Board, most of which
were referred to the committee on
teachers. The recommendation that a
police officer at Olaa be made a truant
officer also, and receive in addition to
his income from the Government a
shiall salary from the Educational De
partment resulted in a somewhat ani
mated discussion of truant officers in
general. There seemed to be a common
opinion that truant officers are derelict
in their duties. The prosecution of
some of the parents might have a good
effect. This the officers fail in.
A long report from the committee on
teachers, recommending transfers and
appointments was read by Professor
Alexander. Most of the report was
acted on affirmatively by the Board.
Several teachers recently arrived from
the States received positions, but those
applicants of Island residence were pre-
f erred.

most elegant and perfect wheel ever
seen in this market.
